Peaking!

Synopsis

birdsong,my favorite 1st set song,always a trip. Here comes sunshine was brought back into the dead live repitoir in 1993 and it sounded great and a welcome response.
I'm pretty sure Robert Hunter wrote the lyrics to Shakedown St. funny idea tho.

This is really great! Is there a place to buy this?

there was so much smoke at this show. this is about the time jerry really started to struggle with pain killers and was trying to write shakedown street. that's what shakedown street is about and many people don't know. about being hooked on pain pills and not being able to shake it off - so like, shakedown street means you can't get of them pain pills. all that to the sides though jerry kicked long enough to record from the mars hotel and you could tell cuz the playin was really clean.

What you can do is take a screenshot of the page (press and hold the home and power button briefly at the same time) or you can bookmark the page on the google chrome app (assuming your google account is linked to it) and the bookmark will sync up with your pc google chrome is your account is linked to that as well. if you have any questions hit me up and ill get back to you when i can

A friend turned me onto this site and ive been amazed. However, I'm not all that up to speed with technology. The main issue I'm encountering is that I've noticed I was able to upload some of my content and download certain content from my laptop. However, I doesn't seem like I can do anything from my Android phone. So when I'm on here like now and find this gem of a recording but don't know what to do. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Nothing left to do but Smile...Smile...Smile...

That I was in attendance for and only a sweet 16 teenage boy. I don't remember too much of the actual show, but it was hot and humid and my first drag of "grass." I hope this show gets officially released soon. One of my many favorites.

This is So many nice memories of this great game! Sega had some of the best arcade games back in the day and this one is no exception. The graphics at the time blew me away as a child and that sit down cab that moved was awesome! The music selections in game are just perfect! One of the reasons I NEEDED a Sega Master System.And this site have amazing content for more info https://www.certificationsdesk.com/microsoft/real-MB6-892-exam-questions.html

Free form funk freak out. Turn this the fuck up. The Playin'. I kinda pity the freaks who were peaking during that. I also kinda envy them.

Everyone's in top form here. Jerry's prob mixed a tad high here for my taste on the jams, but it's not like he's playing wrong notes or anything. Bobby's flanged guitar sound is the juicy peach, spurtin all over the place. Jerry tries to decoratively lay his creamy wah on top and succeeds often enough ....

Put on your dancing shoes, turn on your lovelight and luxuriate in the beauty.

Great audio

One of my favorite tunes...and this one is funky funky funky. One of my favorites so far. June 9th version was good, but June 10th had me dancing in my chair at work. Transported me to a happier place.

Effective teachers are fervent about helping their students to learn. They form cool and caring relationships with their students. Good attachment will form with teacher and student. Teaching I is not only writing and reading.

I love the sound of this one. The song list is gigantic and wonderful. This show seems to combine all of the Dead's best qualities, eras, influences, and moments. Simply breathtaking. Check out PITB.

Def Phil you yells about volume
funny shit tho

"Too loud, you dumb shit! My ears fall off, asshole!"

Um...ok. Not sure who says that...Billy perhaps?

I too love 1973. Maybe I love the years before I saw them. But I saw a few shows in 1974 and they were great, too. Still, set list, building from a hot afternoon to incredible jams, Dickey Betts, the transitions, well this show is one of the finest I have heard. Wish I had been there.

Jack Straw, Looks like Rain, Eyes, GDTR, just all the best and more. Thank you very much to David Hollister and G.S. Hamilton. This would be one to carry with me.

Talk about setting the tone for the show, and Garcia was in such good voice. They had so much good material and boundless energy. Amazing show!
When I can time travel (after death, I hear) I know where I'M going. Phil sounds beautiful as hell on Ramble On Rose. Wowza.

want to hear the Dead at their finest? Look no further! Back when they played three hour (or more) shows, 25 minute jams. It simply does not get much better than this!

1973 is one of my favorite Dead era's and this show is a great representation of this year. The first set has a diverse mix of songs. Morning Dew kicked off the night and the energy level continued to grow with BIODTL. I dig any Wave That Flag simply because of the contextual importance it had to the Dead's repertoire, eventually becoming US Blues.

A particularly brain melting Playin' with one of the best Eyes ever performed following. Eyes is very jazzy and upbeat with crisp keys providing the perfect background for Jerry to play to. The keys are so prominent it's almost approaching ragtime. This is exactly what makes 73 great though, there's such a variety in the playing. It seems almost wrong to love the keys so much especially because this show is so close to Pigpen's death in the Dead's chronology. His death, while a somber event, marked the point at which the Dead were really able to explore their sound without being pushed in a blues/ rock n roll direction instead of their preferred psychedelic sound.

For me, the highlight of the show is Dark Star. Jerry's playing is bouncy with the perfect amount of echo. Phil is definitely on phire in this Star. Another jazzy rendition as well. I want to point out the incredible jam starting around 6 minutes but really picking up at 7:30. My first time hearing this Dark Star I was absolutely blown away by this playing. I stopped what I was doing, turned it up all the way, and just let those chords pass right through me. Easily one of the most unique jams in a Dark Star. Reminiscent of Allman Bros in my opinion, interestingly enough they were actually at this show and joined them for the third set. Phil takes off around 10 minutes with Jerry's notes seeming to fall from the sky and land like droplets onto Phil's sea of almost tangible bass notes. Gosh, another great moment that just screams Allman Bros is at 12 minutes and ends when they get into the song at 13:30 or so. The band settles into a nice groove here as Jerry sings the first verse. I love how Phil becomes the focus at so many points during this song, especially at 17 minutes. The 20 minute mark turns a little spastic and takes them into a really bizarre, abstract jam that solicits one or two yells from heads in the crowd (maybe they knew an excellent He's Gone was up next) but doesn't do much for me personally. With that being said, this top performance of Dark Star comes to a subtle close and the band creeps into He's Gone.

The crowd claps along to He's Gone, totally into it. Again Phil's bass slaps me in the face at the 10 minute mark in this song. I'm not quite sure what the loud cracking noise that pops up occasionally throughout this show- sounds almost like a slapstick or even fireworks. Regardless, the jam into Wharf Rat is just as beautiful as this particular rendition.

Once again the crowd claps and sings along as the band breaks into a quick paced Truckin'. Sugar Magnolia, as opposed to some other performances, is well developed and pretty tight. No matter what Sugar Mag puts me in a good mood. The set ends with Promised Land. For me, no top show from 73 is lacking in a killer Chuck Berry song.

The whole third set with the Allman Bros is a classic in my opinion. Warren Zevon once said, "Enjoy every sandwich" and the NFA>GDTRFB>NFA from this show is certainly a sandwich to be enjoyed.

All in all an excellent show. One that appeals to all sorts of Deadheads who all have their own favorite eras and songs. Likewise, this is a show which seems to appeal to all sorts of music lovers. The Dead transition so fluidly from rock riffs to jazz grooves to spacey, surrealist jams in this show it will make most people smile at one point or another. I was left smiling almost the whole show, for that I award it 5 stars.

One of my all time favorite versions of eyes,this is my first time on this website,almost brought me to tears to hear this amazing sound quality, I wish I was there around these times to see this magic

great setlist, great energy! I wouldn't be surprised if Dave Lemieux ends up releasing this sometime soon as an installment of Dave's Picks

I was at this show and just found the booklet that was given out to everyone there. I scanned in the cover and uploaded it here. If anyone is interested I can scan the whole thing.

One thing I remember about the show was how hot it was (this was an afternoon show). I managed to exit to the parking lot and convince one of the gatekeepers to allow me to bring in my cooler filled with beer, soda and water.

Great show!

This show ranks up there as one of the all time performances IMHO. From the Dew opener to the JBG closer this show is hot hot hot. Dickey Betts adds another dimension to the last songs and makes them shine in ways not often heard. Crank it up and enjoy the ride!

thanks for this recording! Warms my heart on a cold November Day in the North West!
The days when shows went long, Whoo Hoo1

This was my 2nd show, and one of the first ones I listened to when I got here...Mostly I've fixated on EYES...*I* think it's a really hot performance...Garcia was well on his way to becoming a JAZZ guitarist IMO...as of now I've only successfully downloaded one show (Hollywood Palladium 8/6/71) but that's ok, I'm satisfied...

Merci Merci Merci
http://actiongames99.blogspot.com/

Delicious, warts and all; like the best lover you ever had. Can you see Dickie Betts or Jerry Garcia using note correction software, lip-syncing or air guitar? Didn't think so.

Thanks for taking me way back to the days of yore, where up in northern Minnesota, closer to Canada than Saint Paul, we knew when we saw the Northern Lights it meant we could drive out of town to the woods somewhere and drink, smoke and tune into AM Rock-N-Roll from Chicago Land Radio...while taking the local radio likes of Merle Haggard, Johnny Cash and Loretta Lynn for granted, but HEY MAN it was PARTY TIME!!!...so OK, very local: you had to be quiet cuz it didn't sound so good loud on car radio broadcasting 800 miles away, plus sounds carry over water, ice, all year, sister, and who wants to be busted, etc...

And so, today, as I lean in to my laptop to absorb each & every note,chord, phrasing, everything of this unbelievable gem, while my neighbors and passing cars outside are blasting and booming everything under the sun for all to hear,...I am grateful, truly grateful, for this experience.

Thanks, All.

Nice Box of Rain, Good harmonies between Phil and Donna, song has a nice bounce to it. Almost sounds like Weir might be playing slide?
Also---30 something tunes, The Allman's, Lots of stretched out songs...
Gonna listen to the 'Wave the flag'. Pretty sure had some of this show on tape.

Happy Birthday 6-10-73; You are 41 today

Grew up going to the free shows in GG Park. Saw tons of shows til JG's untimely death. Marin Co. Ca. was the place to be for excellent music in the 60,70,80's...count myself to be incredibley fortunate to have grown up there...

This is a killer set. Love this faster-tempo "They Love Each Other"...JG was on it...xxoo

Probably my favorite of all the shows I attended. Somebody mentioned the Watkins Glen show. I hitched up there Friday. They jammed Friday night, but disappointed Saturday. I think the weather was too hot for them. The Band was great, the Allmans were also very good.

This RFK show was complete, and just kept getting better as it went on. The jam with the Allmans was really special. I'd love to burn this to a CD. Anybody have an EASY way to do it? I'm not as savvy as my kids.

this really hit me today. i'm so grateful this quality of a recording exists, being able to hear bob and phil in there made it so special. i needed to find this show today and hear it, i mean really hear it. thank you for sharing such a gem. five stars to anything that touches me the way this has

For all of you folks out there who are not aware of the 26th song--"That's Allright Mama" on, is a jam with The Allman Brothers Band!! We went to the Watkins Glen show on July 28th that summer. The Dead opened right on time at Noon, followed by The Band, with The Allman Brothers playing last. But, after they finished their set, it was followed by a MONUMENTAL JAM with a compilation of some of the BEST MUSIC EVER PERFORMED!!! I was one of the lucky few who got to see The Allman Brothers open for The Grateful Dead at The Fillmore East in Feb. of 1970 and again in March of 1971, with Duane when they recorded the famous "Live at the Fillmore East". Some 40 years later i can still see Jerry and Dicky Betts standing next to each other jamming!!! That show ended at about 1:30 in the morning at Watkins Glen Speedway!!!

Fairly good show, not a sock knocker-offer.

i was not at this show but a good friend of mine took pictures.jerry back stage and also stage photos if anyone is looking for some photos e-mail at waferhead859@aol.com looking to trade or something

It sure would be worth something to me! I have yet to get my hands on the magic of a hard ticket from back in the day. I was one of the unfortunate souls born A.J. (after jerry) so now all I have the joy of doing is listening, loving, and spreading the sweet jam that is Grateful Dead. But that's enough for me i suppose ;)Do you not want your ticket?

I have the original ticket for the June 9th show in excellent condition. Do u think it's worth anything?

I was 3 years old... someone could have had me sooner... why was I born so late. Ill never know. Thank goodness that these moments are still here for all to capture.

Remembering this concert. It was very hot, the temps and playing, about 110 on the field. Water hoses cooling folks. Does anyone else remember Looks like Rain then Box of Rain, and in the middle of Box of Rain, a cloud came and sprinkled everyone for about 30 seconds, then moved on?? Maybe the boys saw clouds approaching from their stage view, facing northwest, and we (the audience) saw only clear hot skies facing south....and they rearranged the songs? One of my favorite shows. Peace.

Is this the gig that allman bros and sunflower man jammed together?http://archive.org/details/TheBalladOfOrsonWells

That little outro at the end of Goin' Down the Road had the same 2 chord progression as Fire and some similar runs, but it was probably just coincidental. Bob's guitar fills actually sounded more like a Cryptical Reprise tease.

Nonetheless, though not perfect this recording is quite an improvement over my old cassette and the show is a classic. It would have been nice to have been there then; 7/7/86 was....rough.

I never got to see the Dead live. I've only been so lucky as to see PHISH many times. I download a show every two days and alot of the times I go by the reviews you guys post. Thank you for taking the time. As far as the guy talking about all sorts of things that go on in the "hood" in D.C. Please leave the reviews to people who care about the music and am guiding me in the right way. Not a concert goes by I don't wish I could be there. Wishing Furthur would come down near Oklahoma. Peace all Supasteel88

spent a gorgeous weekend afternoon listening to this beaut, coincidentally 29 years to the day after the show. superb setlists, spectacular playing. grab this one, it's among the best of the many, many dead performances i've heard (& i'm usually more of a '68-'69 guy).

super hott show.This is a smoker.been a favorite for years. ~DARK STAR~

Yes-In-Dee-Dee!

I think this show is so nice, ramble on rose, they love each other, takes a train to cry, man these are good

***

You can not even touch this version of They love each other! Man it is Off the HOOK

Im surprised at the amount of negative reviews for this show. It seems to really devide Heads. I happen to love this show. I will agree that some 73 shows have better audio quality, but the overall groove of this show is undeniable. Its a long trip, but great to listen to all the way through, and when the Allmans come in to cap it off, well, I just love it.

i was sitting down with a couple of friends, and showing them the archive, specifically the dead section, and we came across this here set, and so i played it to show them the extraordinary quality of the soundboard recordings (we're kind of new age deadheads), and after sitting back for the length of the show, just talking and playing cards, we decided then and there to start up a Grateful Dead tribute band like so many have before.

We've got a couple small shows booked as of now, and we're jamming almost every day and having a blast, like the good ol' jerry would want us to. Dead Music makes me such a happy person.

I cant see a weak link in this show all of the songs are done great its just one of the best shows ever.

This was a superb performance--every priceless moment! Email me (mklsgl@comcast.net) for an easy way to download it.

There are several posts on this show who totally knock it and say it isn't that great. I can only ask, Did you even listen to it? I mean really, this show rocks. Godchaux's playing is stellar, in Playing in the Band, Eyes of the World, Around and Around. It just blows my mind. The energy is there, and it sounds like they are having a lot of fun. To me this show definitely rates 5 stars. To those of you who think it is lacking, stop smoking and listen to it with your real ears. :) Peace.

does anyone hear a mountain jam tease in not fade away? this may or may not have been mention in earlier post, i just thought that was interesting. but going along with popular opinion great show!

Jerry and Phil playing back and forth during Bird Song and Billy jammin all day and keith and bobby jammin in the back doesn't make it much better. Not to mention the Allman join the 3rd set this is one of their best shows. Get it NOW

jerry's sounding real good on that
like the dark star, in good tune, and the he's gone after it, sort of unusual, and also of course that's allright mamma, great one, and the great sound of it all

What a great year for the Dead. This wasn't the best of the year but how great is it to hear the Dead and the Allmans jam together? Two worlds colliding make this a Dead classic.

BTW, The set list should read Wave That Flag->US Blues->Wave That Flag. Ha!

We drove down from UMASS. Saturday Dead came on mid afternoon it was hot as heck bright sun 90's. Early in the set a lady climbed up on stage and handed Jerry a big red rose stem. Jerry put it between his death playing "Deal". IT was truly a love fest no problems or violnece. The people on the infield were baking in the hot sun they turned on the fire hoses and began spraying the crowd. We moved up into the stands under the roof out of the sun.
Allmans came on that evening and played a great set. Sunday Wet Willie then Allmans then Dead.
Betts and Trucks? joined the Dead about mid night and jammed for another 1 1/2 hours. A lot of the crowd had left we moved down right in front of the stage. Jerry was just plucking away looking into the eyes of Dickie never once at his own guitar just that big smile and rolling eyes. It was wild. Our ride had to leave before midnight to return his fathers car so he could get to work. We slept on the grass outside the stadium that night. 4 am on a Sunday night and there are these little kids on bicycles riding around chit chatting with us. We managed to get a ride to NYC the next morning from a kid that had slept in his car all night. Hitched back to UMass from NYC.
A lot of people might criticize this show but the temps were so hot and the cavernous stadium does not allow for great acoustics. The show was memorable and fantastic. The indoor shows from that era had better sound but not the spirit of this event. IMHO the Dead were at their best from 1971 - 1977. Although I never saw them pre 1971.

Nice sound quality. I don't review the performance. You be the judge.I've been wanting to review the sound quality of these shows for quite some time. I kept a list and now that I have a lot of free time(retired last month) I'm going to do just that. By the way D.C. does suck! When the Good Lord decides to give the world and enema he's gonna stick it in D.C.

It's about the music. You can all find other political discussion sites in order to carry on your political rants. Here, it's about the music. So, let's focus on the music.

And what we have here is a gem of a recording from a gem of a show. It took the band a little while to find its groove after Pig Pen's departure and subsequent death. We hear them starting to hit their stride again at this monster gig at RFK.

Great performance and great quality sound.

Thanks to all those who make enjoying these recordings possible.

Wake of the Flood tunes were nice, as was Dew. But I've yet to hear anything later than spring of '72 that rates five stars. How can this compare to February '69 ("Live/Dead")?

I am English (living in England) and of an age that I should have caught these guys live, at least once, but never did.
But I'm sorry Edith, I do have regrets and that is a major one.
Just bumbled across this site and I'm in Dead heaven!
Thank you for all the recordings.
I am loving this.
(Sorry about the oil, sure it's not all our fault)

I agree with Islam sucks...you are the man!!!

Plus a great show... rare 5 satrs from me!!

The reviewer "notarealdoctor" blames the horse for the horse thief, blames the bank for the bank robber and blames the child for the child rapist.

The reason the car was pelted with rocks, bottles and other garbage way back in 1973 in DC, is because like today DC is filled with blacks that hate white people. Gangs, crime, & poverty are virtues in DC. DC neighborhoods are colleges of crime, poverty, hell, and horror. It's my fault. HA HA HA!

Ratting out people to the cops will get you killed in DC...blacks call that "civilization" I call it crime.

Democrats have always allowed DC to be a disgrace to civilization and humanity. On or off the Plantations Democrats (America's first SLAVERS) never gave a crap about their Africans.

Anyone that doesn't know DC is a cess pool of crime hasn't been there.

Oh sure, where the tourists go they got it pretty cleaned up, but up in da hood, if you white, you in da wrong place.

Sorry to piss you off with the truth, but it's beter to be pissed off than pissed on.

Of course you could always get your "white" friends to walk through any black DC neighborhood at night and video tape what does or doesn't happen and post it on youtube...if you live...eh?

Of course you want to throw rocks and garbage at me, you are a democrat...if you don't like someone or something, you use violence to intimidate them and get your way.

Notarealdoctor is a stalker, a reviewer stalker.

Rather than post a review abpout the GRATEFUL DEAD show, he's obseessed with my posts and has the need to attack me for my right to free speech.

Free speech isn't just burning the American Flag...ya know?

Free speech is saying the things you don't want to hear...does that drive you to violence?

Violence is a form of insanity...ask the people in the Netherlands...hmm.

All stalkers are mentally unstable people, ask John Lennon.

Notarealdoctor encourages violence towards me and is so comfortable about it, he posted it on line knowing his peers wouldn't do anything about it except encourage more of it...

The children of the 60's, 70's,80's, & 90's were born to parents with drug and alcohol addictions, now those kids are grown up and showing signs of the birth defects of it; such as their inability to deal with criticism without becoming VIOLENT.

Yeah, DC is run by people that blame others for their problems...what else is new...and predictable from dummies?

It's my fault DC is filled with crime today as it was back in 1973, everyone knows that...ask them.

Blame whitey....the rally call of the angry black man, Rev Wright.

ZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzz..........BURP........FART!

I wonder when the BP Oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico will end, I heard Boone Pickens say on CNBC that it could leak for a year...yikes!

I wonder if Obama will stop playing golf and going on vacation and hanging out with Sir Paul McCartney at the White House, long enough to protect the "AMERICAN envoirnment", Our wetlands, wildlife, marine life and the whole life of the Gulf? Not to mention all the people that live in states that border the Gulf...

2010 OIL DISASTER IN THE GULF OF MEXICO...and President Obama isn't doing anything to stop it...OMG!

It's been almost two months and all BP has done is dirll more holes so more oil can leak out...40,000 barrels of oil a day for 50 + days...can you do the math, got a calculator, know how to work it?

How many barrels of oil will leak out in one year (365 days) at 40,000 barrels of oil a day...it's kind of an IQ question...

ENVIORNMENTAL TERRORISM and Obama is acting like it's nothing serious. LMAO...nice job, lets re-elect this guy...

I wonder what Obama does take seriously besides speding $11 Trillion dollars this year (of money that we don't have and have to BORROW to get) to prop up a broke and busted US economy?

The idiots of the fifties, sixties and seventies have grown up and taken over the country...

I knew they would screw it up.

I knew that looking back at the 60's and seventies that they would be my 'GOOD OLD DAYS" even though they weren't.

Even though they were filled with threats of nuclear attacks by Cuban Leader Fidel Castro, and the USSR, even though numerous assassinations took place, and "civil rights" laws passed that made hell into heaven or so it was said...even though numerous hi-jackings took place, even thouth the 67, 6 day war took place, even though stalking and hunting Nixon was more important to liberals than getting us off middle east oil in 1974...even though Carter did nothing to end the 444 day hostage taking of 50+ Americans from the US embassy in Tehran, Iran, allowing Iran to become the HEAD QUARTERS and HOME TO ISLAMIC JIHADIST TERRORISM. Even though democrats sent 50,000 American boys to die in Viet Nam, just to cut and run in 75, thanks to liberals like Jane Hanoi Fonda, and the other hollyweird scum.

As the old poster on the wall said back in the 60's:

"IN CASE OF NUCLEAR ATTACK....BEND OVER AND KISS YOUR ASS GOODBYE".

It's a crime to let a sucker keep his money...and
It's a crime to let a sucker keep his country....

Yeah, I am the "MOST HATED" GRATEFUL "DEAD HEAD" ON THE INTERNET ARCHIVE...hello!

I TOLD ALL THE "MORONS" with PC's running Windows XP, HOW TO DOWNLOAD MP3 FILES OF 40 YEAR OLD " IMPERFECT" GRATEFUL DEAD SHOWS...

I committed THE SIN OF ALL SINS...the HOLY GRAIL OF SIN.

The IA built their webpage, they made it possible to download the shows, not me. Even with Windows 7 and realplayer you can click drag the VBR M3U files to the playlist of realplayer, double click the file and open all the songs and download them like with Windows XP, and yet I am blamed for "downloading". Ouch!

I HAVE REPLACED OSAMA BIN LADEN in the minds of some of these retards...as the the most EVIL MAN on earth.

Just as every cop is a criminal and all the sinners saints, as heads is tails just call me lucifer, I'm in need of some restraint.

So if You meet me have some courtesy, have some sympathy, have some taste, use all your well learned politesse or I'll lay your soul to waste, mmmmm yeah.

Pleased to meet you hope you guess my name, mmm yeah. But's what's puzzling you is the nature of my game, get down...woo hoo...Tell me baby, what's my name? Tell me honey, baby guess my name? Tell me baby what's my name? I'll tell ya one time, you're to blame. What's my Name? WHO, WHO? WHO? WHO?

The End.

like notarealdoctor said in his closing, after threatening me with "stoning"....

PEACE...

grate vocals,instrumentals,length of the show to many critics,thank you tapers.........

Well this is one of the first shows i ever got from the archive (along with 5/9/77) and while i loved it, after many careful listens, i've come to realize that this isn't quite as good as i once thought...the band is just having a pretty off night for the most part. now i don't mind a few tiny flubs here and there, but when they are making so many obvious mistakes (such as in Ramble on Rose, Row Jimmy, Bird Song and Eyes) and are just downright sloppy (Truckin') i hesitate to call this a great show.

I don't want to completely dump on this one though, there are certainly many great moments, such as the monumental versions of Playing in the Band and Dark Star found here, some of the best of the year. Phil is fantastic in both.

The Dark Star especially is wonderful, where he takes a long solo. After Lesh's solo comes a really unique passage with him and jerry driving the band towards a very melodic and jazzy jam right before the 1st verse.

And there are also really nice versions of Here Comes Sunshine, Stella Blue, Hes Gone, and also They Love Each Other, which i mentioned in my previous review.

The 3rd set with the Allmans is what elevates this show to 4 star material, containing classic jams including the only That's Alright Mama and a great NFA>GDTRFB.


But like i said before, this show is a perfect example of why Spring and Fall '73 are so much better than Summer.

I have to say that I don't remember anything about the concerts at all. I remember sleeping out in the parking lot overnight with some friends. Some of us had hitched down to D.C. from NYC and then met up with the people with the van. But there were a lot of Dead concerts in those days -- Madison Square Garden, and then a place I can't even remember the name of just upstate NY, others..... Many others, maybe it's why my memory is gone, huh?

"be were lost in that lot long enough to see before we left that there was a single cloud over RFK with a rainbow running through it.

I have only been able to verify the truth of this story with my wife of thirty three years this June."


Sweetmp3, I was there with two vans full of friends, and we all saw that rainbow in the mist of the tiny cloud, and the music seemed to respond to the sight. I also saw a few lighting bolts, but that's sleep deprivation. There were problems very early Sun. morning, people running around the outside walk of the stadium and lot of yelling for help ? We were with out phones then, and it was a ghetto, so we hunkered down in the vans. Great show though, Wet Willie, whew, he really soaked his satin outfit, Crazy dude, blew us all away, when we were peaking. I remember taping the faucet on the very top row with a small vice grip. It was hot and muggy, and the garbage trucks down below looked like giant cockroaches come to nibble on the stadium, and the uneven roof looked like it was slowly revolving. It had to be the second day for the rainbow, because we were in front of Dicky Betts and Greg the day before sipping on johnny walker red.

in 73 i was 10 so obviously never saw this show but a song or 2 on here are the smokinest versions ive ever heard especially here comes sunshine if anyone knows of a better one let me know ill definately give it a listen the Dark Star not too bad either although i think the Cleveland one from the same year is slightly better and always dug the 73 Big Rivers too although this isnt their best

Surprising how hyper-critical many are of this show. Decades ago I enjoyed the 'best of' compilation on the two 90-min cassettes that were commonly traded (with the filler of a couple repeats from the same show--anyone remember this?!?). Listening to the full show for the first time was incredible. Agreed, the first set has few memorable moments: Jerry's improv on Wave is a lot of fun and Race is a treat. The second set features stunning renditions of Eyes and Sunshine. As for the third set, sure, Dick(e)y Betts isn't Duane Allman. And Keith isn't Tom; Brent isn't Pig Pen, etc. BFD. Could you ask for a better That's Alright Mama??? And that's only the warm-up for a 21-min NFA-GDTRFB with Jerry and Dickey trading solos as if they've played together their entire lives. Wow! Something very special!

I actually prefer '74 but there's just not enough material available.

They really do slaughter Ramble, and half of Row Jimmy, though the latter they pull together nicely at the end. Somebody said Lazy...and I have to agree, at least the first half of the show. Certainly not the apathy we've come to expect from an otherwise energetic year.

But, we take the good with the bad. This show is as much about quantity as anything. What band plays 30+ songs in a night? And don't count those new garbage radio emo kids' bands whose songs are all 3 minutes long and lip synced.

Good Train to Cry, nice, exploratory Eyes, and great but brief Race is On. All in all, A+, for effort if nothing else.

PS-Take it from a published poet and college English teacher...that's NOT poetry. You could write that by spilling your refrigerator magnets. Poems ARE, contrary to popular belief, supposed to make sense, have meaning, and go beyond strings of cliches. Besides that, this isn't a poetry forum. SORRY to the rest of you. It's just a pet peeve of mine.

I think this guy/gal oh_uh_um_ah has a right to say whatever he/she wants. So shut yer pie hole.
You are not supposed to use the 'Write A Review' section for your personal attacks, and bigotry. READ THE RULES FOR THE INTERNET ARCHIVE, dummy. Save it for the 'Forum'.The 'Write A Review' section is for talking about the show, it's not for attacking each other. It's not about persecuting someone for telling people how to share the music. If someone doesn't want to download a show they won't. And if someone wanted to record a live GRATEFUL DEAD show no one could stop them..rightSHARE...SHARE...SHARE....that's what this is about...it's not about your hate for someone that is helping people enjoy life.

I support sharing the music...so pass it on:

thanks for the HATE!

Ok, so the quality has it's issues.

You have to admit that the NFA with Dicky and Jerry is nothing short than a gift from above.

Take it for what its worth. Most of us would give anything to see a show like this today.

Super 73' Soundboard!

5 stars for the mix, recording, performance & transfer.

We piled into Mason's car and drove from Brooklyn to DC. RFK Stadium was huge. Filled to the brim with DEAD Heads, an ocean of hot sweaty bodies baking in the sun. I can't remember who came on first, I think the GRATEFUL DEAD played all day, and the Allman Brothers played all night...a memorable show...I still have my ticket from the show.

After the show we got lost in the "hood" trying to get out of DC...I told Mason, don't stop at the red lights man...keep drivin!!! Our car was being pelted with garbage, drinks, rocks...I said Drive man, drive!

I highly recommend adding this show to your 1973 GRATEFUL DEAD collection.

Remember to get June 9, 1973 at RFK:

Eat, Drink, Be Merry and Listen to the GRATEFUL DEAD.

Thanks for the LOVE from 1973.

It was my first Greatful Dead concert and it was the best. What's not to like about the Greatful Dead and The Allman Brothers, both in their prime and rocking all day and into the night? Man I was worn out but enjoyed every minute and don't remember much about how I drove back to Richmond that night.

It was hot and I was with Leslie S. I was drunk. My first real drunk show. Blacked it out and wound up in a bus terminal somehow.
May have got back to Leslie’s house with her family.
Took until 87 to sober up and not drink. This was the first of many shows where I cannot remember much. Now you ask me about 4/29/71 and I am all there. Beware of John Barley corn.

Funny improvised lyrics for Wave . Great groooovy Jam of Takes a lot/ That's alright / Promised land. You can really float away on these.

How do i download these songs?????

Please, let me know at sk8trman4@aol.com

Thank you :)

This is the only outdoor Dead show I was able to see, wow. There is nothing like it, none of the other 10 or 12 shows I saw compare. Sitting in the infield about 60 yards from the stage was truly a Dead experience! You had to be there.

full of energy from morning dew to johnny b goode

One of the most overrated shows ever. Want primo 73? You know what to get. There are a few nuggets here, but they are far and few

you just can't compare this to other shows. Its one of a kind and needs to be in every heads library. Bird song is a gift of life and enchantment...a hint of the allman magic down the line!

Good show, but far from being the best show from '73. The hype surrounding this show is a bit much. The sound is sometimes a little iffy and the band's performance on some of the material isn't all that. Not that it's bad mind you, far from it, but the first set is fairly average with only Bird Song and Playin' being stand outs. You can skip all the other songs and you wouldn't be missing much. The band picks up some steam for the second set which is much better than the first and contains some real gems. The third set with Dicky Betts and Butch Trucks is smoking. Maybe people really like this show because of it's marathon length and all the extra booklets/artwork it comes with? Which I find pretty cool myself. But as far as quality goes it's somewhere in the middle of the pack for 1973. I was initially disappointed because of all the hype this show gets, but what the hell? It's definitely worth a listen and I'm glad I was lucky enough to get it before the Archive stopped soundboard downloading. Check out 2/15, 2/22, 3/24, 5/26 and 11/17 for some more kick ass playing.

BTW check out the aud version of this show. The atmosphere missing from the soundboard is really present and it sounds like one hell of a party.

I was at this show and the previous day's show at RFK Stadium. Back then, the shows went on forever, and tickets were lik $10 or something! The Dead and Allman Bros would jam back and forth throughout the day. It was sunny and warm, and everybody was high! Man, those were the days. I was only 17 years old at the time, and had just graduated high school.

Even though I was kind of messed up (lol), I still remember the music as being awe-inspiring! This setlist rules...just doesn't get any better than this. If you want to know how to download the soundboard of this show, feel free to email me at rfkrox44@hotmail.com.

I remember the Saturday showing starting around noon and lasting until after midnight the previous day.

Cheers!

Danny

This is the real deal friends- I was streaming in the greatful dead, and was waiting for I thought, oh heaven on earth it was my new band, the one time experienceBut- , the new band, i love, They are not just the band - they are , the band the alternaters- the startesi am sooo in love withthis band

Hi to all

Pls lonesome traveller i tried to find the server but .. no way !!

Pls help , would like to dl this show :
http://www.archive.org/details/gd71-07-02.sbd.backus.11798.sbeok.shnf

Do not find the server to FTP
Merci

Phil

This is one of my favorite shows, of any era.
Disregarding a few blemishes on the reels, this is a great sounding show and I think it belongs in every deadheads collection.

-BC

Another way to retain this show for your continued pleasure is based on something someone said previously. Copy and paste this into your browser:

http://www.archive.org/download/gd73-06-10.sbd.hollister.174.sbeok.shnf/gd73-06-10d1t01_vbr.mp3

When the transfer starts, make note of the server (it's ia200033.eu.archive.org). FTP to that server; you'll find several folders, numbered 0,1,2,3 etc - the one we're looking for is in folder 2. Scroll down a little through the various shows until you get to the folder labeled gd73-06-10. Highlight the tracks you want (in my case VBR MP3, but there are other choices) and then transfer them to whatever folder you want.

Enjoy!

Regardless who was alive or Dead! You had to of been there. We arrive late morning and the people were fantastic. The music started around 3pm and ended around 3am the next morning. The gates were knocked down around 5pm and final tally of concerts goers were well over 100k people that day. The final set was make up of members of both feature artist. The just don't do it like that anymore. The concert download should be view more for historical value then recording quality. IMHO - Regards S~

Really, I'm not trying to be a wise-ass, but I swear that this is the most downloaded show becasue people see "Allman Brothers" and don't realize Duane had died back in Oct. of 1971. Kinda like going to see "The Dead" thinking Jerry gone's be there. I'm sure people in attendance had a different experience than those of us just listening to these recordings, but there are just so many other shows in '73-'74 in which the recording is enough to nourish one's heart and soul --- for me this one just cannot compete with all the other gems. However, anytime Jerry sings "It Takes a Lot to Laugh..." deserves at least a three rating. -- AshesRising

As a fan of the Dead and the Allman Brothers, I think this show is kind of neat to hear, but I agree with the reviewers below; the sound quality is subpar for a '73 board, and neither band is at their best. For the Dead at their best that year, check out 2/9, 5/26, 9/11, 11/11, 11/17... I could go on.

Took a few weeks off and now it looks like the site has changed. Can't do what I used to be able to do with the soundboards. So close to hitting the century mark. Any suggestions?

I agree with bradcheng a few reviews ago, I don't really see what all the fuss is about with this show. I was really stoked when I downloaded this based on the excellent reviews. After the first few songs I was disappointed but kept listening. This lasted throughout just about the entire first set (with a few exceptions - They Love Each Other, Bird Song). I found the sound quality to be poor, maybe the worst quality I have heard from the archives and I have over 300 discs of GD music from archive.org. I also found the playing uninspired.

I will say that the 2nd set picks up a bit and there are great performances of Eyes of the World and Dark Star. I was actually jamming right along through He's Gone and then came Wharf Rat. This is without a doubt the worst performance of this song that I've heard.

The 3rd set (4th disc) has some memorable moments and some excellent jamming starting with "That's Allright Mama". This set really is excellent and is worth listening to or obtaining.

Overall, although there are some gems in this show (Eyes, Star, 3rd set jams), as a whole it is a poor performance with poor sound. I'm glad I have it for the few songs that really stand out. This show has gone from 4 discs to a 2 disc "highlights" disc for me.

2-star rating. For me, an "average" Dead show is worth 2.5 stars (not that average isn't worth listening to). Overall, start to finish, this show as a whole is below average. The first set gets no star, the 2nd gets 2.5 and the third gets 4.5, so in sum it's about a 2-star show with some outstanding highlights.

This show is hot and deserves to be able to be downloaded and enjoyed in places other than the computer!!

I downloaded this show from http://www.bootlegarchive.com/login.asp?account.asp . You have to sign up and then use the peer to peer network (DC++) in order to download it but someone is usually sharing it so you should be able to download it. It's not ideal but it's worth it to jam to this incredible show in the car, on the home stereo etc...

archivemember606, Hey i would burn this show for you if you'd like. Just let me know and we can work out the details. go well...John

I was 17 and was turned on to the Dead by an older brother (among other things)who wanted to go to these two shows. They played two days at RFK. Wet Wille, Allman Brothers and the Grateful Dead. The Dead closed one night and the Allman Brothers closed the next. I'm not sure which order. I of course had listen to the Dead on albums and " eight track " but never live. Eroupe '72 was the latest album. To say the least I was hooked. The jam with both bands on "First There is a Mountain" was a show stopper. As luck would have it I moved to Hampton Virginia in '76 and was lucky enough to see every show the Dead ( or Warlocks in '89, killer Dark Star,) ever played there. So this set brings back alot of good memories for a 50 year old Deadhed. The Wall Of Sound the Dead used in ' 73 added to the experience.

Is there any way to download this show without streaming it, so that it can be burned to cd? I just wish that there was but I don't see how.

Well, I just couldn't have the last not raving review at the top...Surely one of my most memorable and seems like many others. Whether the great sunny weather, the pre and post encounters, or the 'box of rain' that really came down during the show and the song (I think this really happened, or maybe it was just a group thing). Anyway, am downloading now to sare with my 13 y.o. daughther to keep the legacy going...Peace, Rick

This show seems to have accumulated a rolling snowball of support behind it, but I don't understand why. I've never found it particularly impressive from any perspective - sound or performance. I've download about 60 shows and this is among my least favorites. I really love the Dead at the Old Renaissance Faire (which seems to have gone missing from the archive) for example. But I find this show very unimpressive.

This is, in my humble opinion, one of the top 5 shows to listen to.

This show sums up that title perfectly. Three sets of perfect music from one of the best periods of the Dead's career.
Three words: That's Alright Mama....holy cow. Just unreal jamming between Jerry and Dickie.

This was the first Gratefule Dead show for my wife and I. We got married a week later.

The show was enhanced for both of us and my mind was completely blown apart by the music. I had no idea why the music souned so strange at the time but Phil had his guitar wired each string to four huge stacks of speakers about 70 yards from the stage. He played with the stadium echo during Playing in the Band and I haven't been the same since. I can't speak for the experience of my wife but an interesting story evolved that day.


You did not need a ticket because after the Deadheads got in some of them opened the other gates. The stadium ultimately ran out of food so we tried to leave to eat during the break. When we got to one of the gates, a rent-a-cop says, "Where are you going?" Both of us freaked, turned around and walked back into the crowd. These rent-a-cops were riding around the RFK stadium on scooters and all Heads were toasted. It was scary and in our enhanced state we thought that they had decided to keep us all here for observation or something. We actually found a pay phone, called home to tell a friend who was to arrive for the show the next day and informed his girlfriend's uncle that they won't let you leave when once you get into the show.

A while later we found another gate to our liking and the guy let us leave as long as we knew we couldn't return. Out in the parking lot we managed to get lost, asked directions of another Deadhead who spouted something unintelligable that made perfect sense, we drove around the lot together our car and his in a vast maze. My wife to be were lost in that lot long enough to see before we left that there was a single cloud over RFK with a rainbow running through it.

I have only been able to verify the truth of this story with my wife of thirty three years this June.

Great show, But i feel i am entitled to all the free high quality recordings I want. I mean all these guys have ever done for me is open my eyes to a multitude of dimensions and bring me countless hours of mind bending/blowing experiences.Be GRATEFUL for all we have been given, the whinin has gotta quit.

One of the best shows ever, period. abidation experiments quality

beggars tomb is none other than Dickie Betts. What can be said that hasn't been said before? Best Here Comes Sunshine ever.

*wink*-- AMAZING show, anyone know where to download a copy. Love you, grunk576@hotmail.com

The set list is pretty great, Donna seems on key, but Jerry's guitar playing seems a little sparse and lackluster. Not really bad, just a little lazy maybe. Good sounding tapes, fun enough show.

In That's Allright Mama? The distortion and licks sound rather un-Jerry like. It's hot to be sure, but I am wondering if they had any guest guitarist on stage with them?

This is an amazing show, but its incredibly long. Be prepared for a journey.

This is one of those holy grail shows...just don't start listening unless you have the time to complete it!

Being totally non-technical and new to the site... I have no idea how to download these shows, and the "help with downloads" link is way more detail than I need.

Where can I find... or could someone provide... some real basic-level instructions on how to do that, offlist to bassetf5@yahoo.com?

thanks enormously.

The band is atrocious during the first part of Ramble on Rose-- endless mistakes. But a good He's Gone.

this show is just amazing...

stream this one, and be happy you can hear it :)

beautiful...

what a great show. :)

This was one of my first shows...rockin out. That the music is available in this forum is terrific. Sure I listen to other musics...but this band lives on in my heart. To deny that this and other shows happened is to surrender to geezerhood.

Just do it,free open source download.Save Our Soundboards!!!!I know its only VBR MP3,but still beats most Aud`s.http://streamripper.sourceforge.net/

As Tony may have said about his mother, these guys "dead to me." I've collected enough other interesting music by now. Maybe i'll listen to them again as an old man if the boards ever come back to the archive. By then we'll be a dying breed. You think new deadheads will develop from audience tapes with jerry dead? I've got enough jazz. Bye, boys

First off.. awesome show to kick back to.

To record/save/downlaod the show just paste this in your browser.. http://www.archive.org/download/gd73-06-10.sbd.hollister.174.sbeok.shnf/gd73-06-10d1t01_vbr.mp3

and press enter. then select save as.
To get the next file change the 1t01 to 1t02 and so on to get the rest of the files. (1to1 is for cd 1 track 01). CD 1 has 11 tracks so ends with 1t11. then to cd 2 is 2t01 upto 2t05 then 3t01 to 3t06 then 4t01 to 4t09.
good luck.

I just listened to this show in its entirety. What a show! My new favorite. Not a lot of vocals but the jams were sic. '73 was a very good year! Now if I can just figure out how to record the stream so I can put this on disc.

Check out the bombs Phil is dropping on Dark Star, and Jerry is going nuts on Around and Around and Thats Allright Mama.

5 star show, hands down.

It is a crime that great shows like this one are no longer available for free download. Making the shows available in streaming format was a good shot toward trying to compromise, but there is still one huge problem. What becomes of those of us with dial-up who can't stream music without it stopping every 10 seconds or so to buffer? We just get left out in the cold while others continue to enjoy this incredible music.

I can't imagine anyone is impresed by your waste of space on this page. May sound a little harsh....but so is that drivel. This site is for reviews/comments/remembrences on Dead shows. It's not a place for or about you or about ramblings titled snowflake. And is that a website that you're plugging?

Oh yeah...by the way. This show is really kickin!

Besides your corny as hell. Maybe if I bumped into walking up the parking lot hill at Alpine Valley on 2 hits I could get a cosmic laugh with you but other than that It might be a good time to try and get back down to Earth and one more thing quit trying so hard to get out there. With your silly ramblings of breath and snowflakes and flower circles you goof.

sham bah lah

long live you

this show is absolutely worth the download (if they get it running again like phil said they would!!)... it's got a few flaws (like the first part of BIODTL is missing), but it's a huge ass show, it's well played and its got a lot of heart. has one of my favorite jams in "it's alright mama". GET THIS if they put it up again, otherwise they might make an album out of it.

kILLER SHOW!!Always has been.I wasn't there ,but damn,what a great sample of the boyz.Still listenin' 'N lovin' it.Audience shows ROCK!Almost as good as bein' there.

From start to finish a simply lovely show!!!! This one is great!

Really just a super show. Not the best...but really great and pretty special with Dicky and Butch sitting in for the last set. Not the best quality...sound is a bit thin for my taste...but hey. who cares? The show is so good it does not matter.

My old friend Robert T used to tell me about being at this show. God rest your soul Robert. How's the weed in heaven.

Best part of shows like these is I turned it on this morning at 7:30 when I got to work. Listening in between conference calls and interviews and meetings. In the background on some of the calls. It's now 3:30 and I feel like i've gone through the whole trip and deserve the big rock and roll finale. and maybe something cold in the parking lot is waiting for me. and Robert.

This showm simply put, ranks among the highest quality dead shows/experiences out there.

Throw the Allman Bros. in the mix, and you have a pure american classic.

ENJOY! but damn, download, this shit is gold

Can't really say much more than already been said about this show.....it sends you places. The number of times I simply got lost in Bird Song and Eyes and Dark Star is uncountable.
The third set can certainly be a stand alone show of covers.
Everything about this show is pure brilliance.

Looks Like Rain just made me cry.

I'm not going to add to anything that's been said about this show...the music speaks for itself & anyone who cares about American music ought to own this show. It's worth mentioning, and I hope archive.org doesn't have a policy against this, that the good folks at Sugarmegs -- tela.sugarmegs.org -- have the ABB's performance from this show. It's in real audio format, so you'll have to either record it to wave or use realplayer's premium burning service to get it to cd.

The ABB's sets aren't as flawlessly executed as The Dead's, but they're worth having all the same.

cheers

Well, I was at this show and I remember it like yesterday. Garcia was never more in command and loose.
Now that this download is available I can finally get rid of the 30 year-old nth generation, decayed bootleg cassette I have of this show.

no, i was not at the show. i wasnt born yet. but my first download/review. im more interested in sound quality. and since it was the most downloaded show, i thought id have nothing to lose. the sound is awesome, and the show is amazing. ill definitly be downloading some more shows. sound is awesome on this show

a testament of what Greateful Dead means

Eternal, ethereal, and beautifulThe King is Dead, Long Live Jerry

This show (June 9, 1973) was by far the most "out there" Grateful Dead show. I was there. This was my second (out of about 30) Dead concerts (my first was Baltimore Civic Center (9-72). This recording proves that listening to the Dead depends totally on your state of mind and mood. The first few times I heard it, I thought the sound quality sucked (was flat), then ... driving to the beach (about 3 hours) I listened to it with the background noise of wind through the windows (which in a strange way minimized the sound quality blemishes), and I was on a flashback to the state of mind while I was there that day in 1973. Garcia and Lesh are absolutely in a parallel universe (and universes parallel to each other as well) during the breaks on certain songs (They Love Each Other/Loose Lucy). These are songs I generally don't prefer. But it just proves that the Dead can inject a mindblast into the break of any songs they play (favorites or not). What is amazing about the Dead is after 30 years of listening to them, I have never tired of their music, and am always hearing something new I haven't heard in live performances that I have listened to a hundred times or more. As I said, Ithe music changes with your state of mind.

Not only is this show great, but Almans opened (Betts and Trucks played on 3rd set) and it was $7. Dark Star>He's Gone>Wharf Rat>Truckin is great. As well as Eyes>Stella. Oh hell, the whole thing is great. Give it a listen and enjoy.

A really fabulous Eyes of the World easing into Stella Blue -- a definate highlight. I love the fast They Love Each Other from this period. Also a great Bird Song. Jerry is hot all night, not just in the jam songs, but even on standards like Big River. A very interesting use of Jerry's wah-wah pedal on Here Comes Sunshine, which has also some nice Phil.

Only three months after Pigpen's passing and they're moving on into the next phase. Can't go back and can't stand still -- it made 'em great.

That's a heartwarming tale, but you have plenty of work ahead of you.

having used computers and the net for everything but music downloads, and losing touch with my dead shows(on cassettes)for several years, a recent discovery of an old tape (Palo Alto,'73) made me realize I needed to find my all time favorite show that I could only remember was also a '73 and had Eyes into Stella. So a google later I found the archive and immediately see this show as a prolific download! I am so happy I could pee myself!

I was very fortunate to have attended, in the summer of 1973, the June 9 & 10 shows at RFK, the Watkins Glen event, both shows (7/31 and 8/1)@ Roosevelt Stadium, and both shows @ Nassau Coliseum in September '73. The DC shows were my first, and although by many counts my total of shows (33) is small, that first summer was a doozer (doser?) I agree with Terrapin Brad - these shows were recorded so long ago that any artifact from them is a wonderful gift! The sound quality is what you want to hear - let the music play!

That's what I feel for this show. ...Just love it to peaces! I've been burning new bands from this site like a mad man for almost a year now, but I almost forgot how wonderful the Grateful Dead was. The other people who reviewed this show before me were complaining about sound quality. I think that's absurd! This recording was made over 32 years ago! Get a grip! What do you expect? Of course your microphones sound this good, but they weren't made over 30 years ago either. C'mon now, this show sounds great! It's older than almost everyone who'll be writing a review on it too. Thank goodness for archive, AND the Grateful Dead! I've listened to this show three times today and MAN I wish I could've been there! What a great time the lucky people must have had at this show! I couldn't POSSIBLY be more envious. At least I have it on disc.-Terrapinbrad

What a concert guys. This is not underated or overated it is just a damn nice show that calm's the soul when you need it most. Five hours of music is allways a comfort and it's even better knowing that it's the band you love. Can I say that that is a kickin birdsong. The sound is good very nice to listen to, this is a good year for the boys.

In my opinion, this show is decent. But for those who might be new to the Grateful Dead and have come to this show because of the high number of downloads, I would suggest trying the 5-8-77 Cornell show first.

That being said, the Thats Alright Mama is first rate. I think most of the second and third sets is pretty good, too.

Beginnings of "Beat it" and "Around" are cut and faded in. Large portions of the "Dark Star > Sugar Magnolia" segment are almost buried in the noise floor. A 2 db gain still doesn't help the vocals here. Wharf Rat could even be broadcast without the FCC going crazy over the language. My old SB MC is better than this...

hi
Dought Dwane was there unfortunetly, Merl is sourced as being present, But the star in mix is Dicky, That's alright mama is hopping, i always thought that Goin down the road could easly extend into a Blue Sky seemlessly.
The Levels may not be cranked, but they are great, and should be of no reason not to download and enjoy, RFK, Kezar and Rosevelt sound like one big party to me : ) Butch Trucks on drums fits very well by the way with billy.

This is a good show with some very interesting moments, especially That's Alright Mama. I've heard JGB play this often, but have only heard the Dead play this version, and the improv by Jerry,Duanne and Dicky, wow! Unfortunately, the levels on this recording kind of blew. A lot of level problems!!! The show I would give 5 stars, but with the bad levels, I have to go with 3 stars. This would be an execellent choice for a Dick's Pick.

Truly a great show. If you have never had the chance to experience a Grateful Dead show like myself, this is a great one to listen to. The mp3 does it no glory, you have to go lossless to feel the awe of this show. I've listened to it at least three times in the last week. Its a great one.

This show is THE ONE!! I've heard 5-8-77, Veneta Oregon et al but this is smokin and this is a GREAT recording!!!! I could listen to the Eyes daily, the third set is off the chart also.

I'venever been to a dead show, but I'm old enough to have been to 'em going back to '70. It is a wonderful recording, and was a real turn on when I found this one today. There's enough out there with crappy sound and lousy shows, but if you're gonna download one, let be it. It's got to be the best dark star and eyes out there. (But I do like the eyes version on 'without a net' with marsalis on sax) Stella Blue is a poignant piece, with a soulful jerry on vocals. Beautiful.

Awesome Show! Great Playin', but check out the part about 00:01:50 into it lol. thats the one thing that bothered me throughout the show - oh well - all in all though, great show

Oh my oh my oh my. I've heard alot of the shows that get thrown around as "Best ever", but for my money, this is the best. Blows Cornell away, that's for sure. Anyhoo, I could write 10 pages on this show, and I probably will. Firstly, it's in D.C. in all hallowed RFK Stadium, which automatically makes it a contender for best show status (betcha didn't know that rule). Furthermore everything about this show is great. The Dark Star is in your face and smacks you around like the little girl that you are. So does the Playin'. And who's gonna argue with a '73 Eyes? Not me, because I would lose that argument (never doubt the oratory skills of a '73 Eyes). Furthermore, the third set with the Allman Brothers contains some of the sweetest music I've ever heard. The guitar interplay is unbelievable.

I love this show. You love this show. FIVE STARS!

Thank You Lord for the swing beat on They Love Each Other , no Valium here, just get-n-off !!

Great sound, great tunes. Would be a 5 out of 5 but problems with track 2. (what the heck the rest of the show is wonderful) Not too sure what's going on w/ track 2 but if someone could help me out it'd be appreciated. Peace to all

6-10-73 iz the most popular show (they even made a tshirt for it ) and i can see why. the combination of song selection/sound quality/ musicianship/setlengths and all around coherence of the band makes it ONE of the best by far. The versions of RambleonRose,LooksLikeRain,BTW,Stella,HereComesSun,Eyes(25min+) for example, are some of the best I have ever heard. Well worth it 5 fo' sheezy. Booyakasha

This was the biggest "what if" show for me for years.June 9, 1973 was the first time I ever saw The Dead.I was 15 and first heard Europe 72 while stoned a couple of months earlier.(Talk about a life changing event)
What if I hadn't dosed so hard on Saturday?(Third time I had dosed,first time I really got off)What if I had picked up a bag of trash that day?They handed out free tickets to the Sunday show to those that did.What if I had known I would see The Dead 201 times over the next twenty-two years?
Well now I know what I missed.Never mind the recording quality,it was 1973 after all.Three sets.Merl and the ABB.First Train To Cry of seven.First That's All Right Mama of two.Last Wave That Flag.Box Of Rain to soon dissappear for thirteen years.Here Comes Sunshine played for another year until it dissappears for eighteen years.And oh yeah Morning Dew to open.Download this show for it's historical signifigance because the band surely never played anything like this again.
Thanks again to archive.org!

Quit your bitchin dude. Say your piece and get out.
This show is a top 10 for the year but a little overated in my arogant opinion. Get the Feb,May, and Nov shows first, then come back. Besides if the boys pull this one off to pimp it on itunes there'll be a least 60,000 copies of this bad boy out there to get off of others who grabbed it first.

i hear distortion on the left channel {bobby and keith} during TLEOther.....why has no one mentioned this.....also some breakup during da dew can we REVIEW SHOWS AND STOP ALL THE PERSONAL TALK !!!!! damn damn damn

My own opinion of this night well, its beautiful.
It is most likely just me, but i can almost hear where the organ would fit in truckin, my passion has shifted from sports to keys, for the time being. or so i say. lets hope next year i can work both in some way or another ;) keep on truckin always rememebr to be on the look out for new music, new ideas, new adventures, many more places to reach. adonai my friends. Much Peace and Love, truckin has totally just got me there. hahahahaaa

This show is good. If you compare it to other shows the dead has cranked out it doesnt compare. I dont know what to send you to but there is defitly better out there. Just keep searching! You will find the best. Lost a star for over rated.

I Just want to send out a BIG THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU to all of the people behind Internet Archive. What a wonderful piece of history at my fingertips.
I have always been a big fan of RFK and this one is no exception. I never knew they even played there that early. I'm learning things about the dead(and other bands)that I thought I knew. RFK was huge and they were playing there when they were only 8 years old!(the dead) I was only 3! May the Music NEVER Stop!

Man, was it hot, but what a great day and a great show. Remember it like it was yesterday.Went with all my Temple buddies...anyone remember?

this show is as over-rated as they come. its a combo Dew first set opener and the novelty of the allman bros on stage with the boys in the third set that makes this a highly regarded show, nothing more. the actual playing is strikingly average--very mellow--very little octane to this show at all. and the sound is pretty weak, too. sugar mag is nice, with bobby adding some energy finally, but donna, of course bellows off a couple crys to ruin any momentum they were to gain from this charge. she is truly awful.

we got there a couple hours early on 6/9 before they opened the gates.we could hear china cat/rider as a soundcheck from outside.we spent most of the weekend about 20 feet from the stage.after the 6/10/73 sets including the closing jam,it was worth the sun poisoning.
whew !

Ladies and Gentlemen, The AllGrateful DeadMan Brothers Band !! They were hittin' the note and everything was just exactly perfect. The preceding Dead show was killer too, the bass solo in Dark Star was great. Oh yeah, TLEO induced some sort of spastic fit while I was painting the kitchen. I came out of it to find my wife staring at me with a look that was half amusement and half total fear. God, I love the Grateful Dead. NAMASTE !!

There is alot to digest here! Opening Dew only tells you one thing, its going to be a hot night. TLEO is so jumpy you cant help but get down. I could probably ramble forver. If you cant get into this, you probably aren't into the Dead.

As most of us know, 72' and 73' are some of the deads most productive and best known years, this show is no acception. I have been an avid dead listener for years, and even though I have not have the privilage to bear witness to one of their few thousand! shows, I still know what a good show is. thanks to my parents and their friends, I have acces to many different tapes and recordings. This show was one of my first tapes they gave me, and remains to this day to be my favorite. (it is also one of my favorite darkstar performances ever!)I highly recomend this show to any and all ages

Wow, I've been listening to the Dead for about 5-7 years. With entering the trading community, I have been getting some shows and this is by far my favorite Grateful Dead show I've heard from any period!!! This is a must have for newbie Dead listeners!!!

I went to the show on the 9th where the played befor the A Bros. After dropping acid and running around the hot sun for most of the day, I slept through most of the A Bros. The Dead were OK and except for someone firing off a pepper gas canister in my section of the stadium it was a nice day. At the end of Saturday night we were sitting around watching the crowd leave and at some point someone announced on the PA that if anyone was interested they could come up and get a big garbage bag. If it was returned full you would get a free ticket for Sunday. So thats what we did. It took about 15 minutes to fill a bag and sure enough they handed out tickets.

On sunday the Bros went on before the Dead. At The end of their set, half of the audience left the stadium. So what had been a massive audience was reduced to a nice private party for Dead Heads. Either Bob or Jerry commented on it from the stage and invited everyone to come up closer. As you can see by the two days set lists, Sunday was the killer show.

really covers a lot of ground, like a cheetah chasing down wildebeast.
gather this one and strap it on.
Here comes Sunshine's one of my favoritz,
this one preceeds a Dark Star ending in Wharf Rat.
classic excellence!
oh yea, the Allmans are in the mix too.
Its a shame theres not more Allman Brothers music out there, and I've gotten about all they have here off the archive.
Anybody know where i can quench my thirst for more Allmans??????

Yeah, this show is really good and super popular now a days, but have you heard June 22, 1973, that show is amazing(imho). It is such a creative and well done show all the way through .The sound is great and the mix is perfect. I hope you check it out and I hope you enjoy it.

I'm in accord with all reviews here...this is an essential recording. And of all the JGB recordings I've listened to(and the very few and cherished times I saw Jerry do this tune), this It Takes ALot To Laugh, It takes a Train to Cry is the best ever performed, IMHO.

what a fantastic show and the quality well look at the lineage. anyway, a must have and did i mention the allmans and merl!

Solid show top to bottom. This is the one that converted a long-time Dead hater friend of mine. I put the third set in, and during 'Mama', she said "You know, I think I DO like the Grateful Dead."

For me, I think a fantastic 'He's Gone' is overlooked by many.

But why are you listening to me? Trust your own ears!

wow you are right, immediately after they stop singing they go into a fire tease! You can even hear the crowd reacting

When worlds collide, some serious jammin' goes down! You need this in your CD wallet right now!

This show is great!! I've never heard Big River sound so excellent!!

This show has a higher mix of Jerry than most 1973 shows. If you like to dial in on Jerry on the likes of Bird Song, Playin' Eyes, Dark Star or the Allmans set, get this download. Of course this show is a classic!

We know all about the Allmans but the Eyes/Stella is smokin'. The sound is okay but I've heard much better during this time period. This is a good show but not as good as 2/9/73, 5/11/72, 5/8/77 or 12/31/81. I say this b/c I can't figure out why this show is so popular.

Does anyone else hear at the end of goin down the road...some fire in the mountain tease? someone plz check it out and post somethin about it, tell me if im crazy or not :o)

I am not a huge dan of 1973, but this one really kicks.... there is not too much in the way of breaks b/t sets and the third set with the Allman Bros is something to write home about. Also, the sound quality is about as good as you get for this time period without the professional assistance from Dick's Picks. Stop reading my babble and download and listen.

I had never heard this show until today and am amazed with the energy all the way through - sound quality 4 show quality 5+

The first 4 songs it took the person mixing to get a grip on levels. The soundman finally gets comfortable and settles in 7 songs later around "They Love Each Other".

The levels are low on this recording. Once downloaded it is a good idea to put it through the wang-dangger (your sound editing program)and raise the soundlevels to max out at 0db. If you are skilled at normalizing you may want to normalize. I only add a smather of normalization because too much diminishes overall instrument dynamics and the quiet breaks.

There is a lot of squeeze and fluctuation in the high end as if someone mastered this using dolby on a non dolby encoded tape.

There has to be a better audience recording out there somewhere.

Killer show from one of the many great Dead periods. Great sound quality, and with a tiny bit of touching up could make a great Dick's Pick.

Just took a trip of 3000 miles and 30 years on the Deads Golden Road---thanks to The Archives digital wings

Since noone elsed touched on it, I'd like to add what a wonderful, upbeat, and enthusiastic version this show holds! Big fan of TLEO, and this one grabs you. short but sweet

Jerry's first two lead braks in That's All Right Mama display sheer dominance...how is Dickey Betts supposed to follow that? Sparse and beautiful licks make for a great Not Fade Away. The Row Jimmy is out there. The only weakness is the Wharf Rat and Truckin' get sloppy.

Okay, I like Kezar 5/26, certainly no slouch. But this show beats it out for my favorite of summer 73. If you were Jerry, and you knew some of your musical peers, the Allmans were listening backstage, what would you do? You'd play your ass off, right?
The first set starts with Morning Dew,the 2nd with Eyes. Need I say more? Okay, the Bird Song,Playin and Dark Star are fantastic- Jerry is in true form.But wait - who's that joining them onstage for the 3rd Set? The Allman Bros.? Here's where the trip gets twisty folks, for at times you can't tell whether it's Jerry jamming with the Allmans, or the Allmans backing up the Dead. Who cares? It's fantastic! Can you say supergroup? A must have for 1973.
Dr. Flashback :-)

EYES on this show is surreal, dreamy. It's like being high on a riverbank when you can't tell if it is 11AM or 5PM because the sunlight is simply everywhere and you're glowing. To go from an antique cassette of this show to a digital download is like being able to conjure up that riverbank anyday of the week.

I was born in DC - a mere 28 hours after this show occurred, so forgive me if I'm a bit biased. I love every second of this show, from the plaintive but crushing Dew opener to the rockin JBG closer. Phil's solos in Dark Star are stellar.

Set III features some tasty Jessica licks from Dicky Betts dueling with Garcia. Unfortunately, neither Duane Allman nor Berry Oakley could be there as they were deceased at the time.

Well, Duane was actually deceased by this point. Who knows how good this third set could have been with him. As it is, this is an essential 73 show. Unique Eyes, superb HCSS, wonderful Star, and then that third set. If I had to bring one show from 73 to a desert island, well, you get the idea.
